Spoil Mum Rotten This Mother's Day

Mother's Day lands on 10 May 2026, and if your mum is anything like ours, she deserves more than a last-minute card from the petrol station. Singapore's dining scene is pulling out all the stops this year, with restaurants across the island rolling out special brunch spreads, elegant high teas, and multi-course lunches designed to make the most important woman in your life feel like royalty. We've rounded up the spots worth booking right now — because the best tables disappear fast.

Best Brunch: Colony at The Ritz-Carlton

Colony has long been a heavyweight in Singapore's weekend brunch circuit, and their Mother's Day spread is always a showstopper. Think lavish seafood towers, live carving stations with prime rib and roasted lamb, and a dessert counter that could make a pastry chef weep. The space itself is gorgeous — open, light-filled, and perfect for a family gathering that doesn't feel cramped. Expect to pay around $128++ per adult for the full experience, and do yourself a favour by adding the free-flow Champagne package for an extra $68++. Mum will thank you.

Best High Tea: The Landing Point at Fullerton Bay Hotel

For mums who prefer their afternoons refined and unhurried, The Landing Point delivers one of Singapore's most photogenic high tea experiences. Their three-tier set features delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and seasonal jam, plus patisserie-level sweets that change with the season. The waterfront setting overlooking Marina Bay gives you that special-occasion atmosphere without trying too hard. High tea sets start from $68++ for two, and the TWG tea selection is excellent. Book a window seat — trust us on this one.

If budget is no object and you want to give mum a truly unforgettable meal, three-Michelin-starred Odette remains in a league of its own. Chef Julien Royer's French-contemporary cuisine is built on impeccable seasonal produce, and the Mother's Day lunch menu typically features standouts like Hokkaido uni with kombu butter, slow-cooked pigeon with black garlic, and his legendary Vanilla Soufflé to finish. Lunch runs at $398++ per person for the tasting menu, but this is the kind of meal people remember for years. The dining room inside the National Gallery is serene and elegant — exactly the setting mum deserves for a proper celebration.

Colony for families who want variety and a relaxed vibe, Odette for the ultimate splurge, and The Landing Point if your mum loves a proper afternoon tea. Whatever you choose, just make sure you actually show up with flowers too. She's earned it.
